After weeks of government lawyers running the show, Larry Householder’s defense attorneys finally had the opportunity to punch back. And did they ever.

Thus far, the trial has primarily featured witness testimony and pages and pages of documents. But yesterday, Householder’s lawyers introduced the jury to some hard, tangible evidence. And they even had their client put on a little show in the process.

More specifically, Householder put on a pair of Isotoner gloves. Or at least he tried to. Not because it was chilly in the courtroom or because he has an affinity for fashion. But because he believes the gloves will set him free.
